This report provides information on the historical and current situation in Tibet, with the aim of contributing to public understanding of the problems. It consists of two parts. The author of part one compares the theoretical basis for relations between the Chinese Government and minority groups with actual practice in the largest autonomous region, Tibet. His account outlines life in Tibet before, during and after the 1950-1959 uprising, and describes the situation today regarding education, religion, language and administration. He points out that the professed desire of the government to preserve minority cultures has not worked in practice and that Tibet is the least successful example of relations between the government and a minority group. While health and welfare of minority groups may have improved, official policy has led to the suppression of Tibetan religion and culture with the aim of integrating the Tibetan people in Chinese culture. He contends that political oppression and human rights violations are continuing. The author of part 2 describes the history of Tibet and of the Dalai Lamas, and of the Chinese invasion and its aftermath, including the situation of Tibetans in exile. He concludes that racial discrimination is becoming increasingly part of the Tibetan problem and warns that the longer the delay in reaching a settlement, the more likely that any traces of Tibetan culture remaining will be destroyed.

Award-winning photographer Steve Lehman has assembled with this book the most thorough and visually compelling account of contemporary Tibetan culture done to date. Ranging from Lehman's spectacular images of the landmark 1987 uprisings by Tibetan monks to Newsweek's feature story on Tibet (inspired by the release of the Hollywood films, Kundun and Seven Years in Tibet) Lehman's intimate, startling, and sometimes shocking photographs are the result of an intense passion for the culture and unprecedented access to all segments of life in Tibet, both indigenous and Chinese.Lehman's evocative photographs bring us deep inside the complexities of contemporary Tibetan culture: political unrest, human rights conditions, cultural assimilation, population displacement, environmental degradation, and the against all odds preservation of the heart of Tibetan culture, Tibetan Buddhism, and its long exiled deity, the Dalai Lama. Extensive quotes and oral histories culled by Lehman during his ten years in Tibet will supplement the photo essays, as will images of Tibetan cultural icons and ephemera, maps and propaganda, religious imagery, and reproductions of currency used by Tibetans and ethnic Chinese inhabiting Tibet.Anchoring this amazing collection will be an authoritative and up-to-date essay and time-line by Robbie Barnett, Executive Director of the Tibet Information Network. Each copy of "The Tibetans" will include an authentic Tibetan-produced prayer flag, which will allow each owner of the book to spread the dharma as done by Tibetans.
